Royal Caribbean’s newest ship, Spectrum of the Seas, keel laying ceremony took place at the Neptun Werft shipyard in Rostock, Germany today. During the ceremony, newly minted coins were placed under the keel and will stay in place there until the end of the ship’s construction. Once the ship is near to completion, the coins are retrieved and presented to the ship’s Captain and crew to be placed onboard the ship. According to maritime tradition, the coins are said to bring luck to the ship during its construction process and then to its Captain and crew when she is sailing out at sea.

The idea behind The Local is to showcase people from around the world, their unique passions and their culture.

The first season focuses on three locals from Alaska. In episode one, Master carver and artist Wayne Price creates fine art in the traditional style of the Tlingit people.

Wayne works with local youth to pass on the craft and culture of the Tlingit people.

Royal Caribbean has released three episodes to begin with, and all three episodes are available to watch on YouTube.
